Frequently Asked Questions
Is this better than using an image?
Yes. Pure CSS gradients are resolution-independent and much lighter than image files, which improves your website's load speed and SEO score.
Can I animate these gradients?
Yes. Since the output is standard CSS, you can easily add keyframe animations to shift the background positions.
Why use CSS mesh gradients instead of high-res images?
CSS gradients are resolution-independent and have a near-zero file size. This significantly improves your Core Web Vitals and LCP scores compared to using large 'Aurora' style image backgrounds.
Is it free to use commercially?
Absolutely. You can use any gradient generated here in your commercial projects without attribution.
